Criterion Announcements - September 2013

As your wallet shrinks and as your insatiable need for Criterions grows another batch appears on the horizon this September. We can look forward to two new releases (four new films) for Criterion in La Cage aux Folles (1978) and the boxset 3 Films by Roberto Rossellini Starring Ingrid Bergman which includes Stromboli (1950), Europe '51 (1952), and Journey to Italy (1954). I am personally looking forward to this set.

There will be a complete upgrade for Bergman's Autumn Sonata (1978) with new cover and new extras. For those Criterion masochists there is a BD upgrade for Slacker (1991). While most of that release will be the same some extras are stated to be on the DVD only while "Deleted scenes and alternate takes" will be on the Blu-ray only. Also The Spy Who Came in from the Cold (1965) is also getting a BD upgrade..
